“Spring reminds us that not all is lost, in fact it comes back around again, no sooner or later than nature intends”
I went bike riding 🚲 with my cousin this May, in Middlefield OH. I though I would paint a vista of new spring color. Yet was struck by how this uprooted willow tree, amidst obvious destruction, was still flowing of its new spring green foliage and still reaching for the sky.
All the while, as the life of this tree has come to its inevitable end, there are brand new wild flowers rising up in its shadows at the trails edge.
We all have been through things personally in life that have been uprooting. Nature tells us that in time, these experiences will take its course and new growth will spring forth. No matter how delicate.
We have collectively been uprooted by the pandemic at hand; let us all be reminded of nature’s ways ... look for new growth!
